This month we're featuring our Fuddlebrook book, Who Stole Herman Tweed. Its a great one to start with as it introduces science process skills. Sherlock Holmes is a fictional detective created by Scottish author, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. He uses forensic science as one of his methods for investigating crimes. In real life, some scientists work every day analyzing and solving crimes. Forensic science uses a broad range of sciences to answer questions related to legal matters. In the book, Who Stole Herman Tweed?, Freddie and Bert learn not to jump to conclusions without thoroughly analyzing all the evidence.
